    I will be assuming a £150m budget for the summer transfer window. Maybe we can stretch to £200m with great sales. I believe this is what we will be shopping for in the next windows.

    • tall, fast and clinical CF
    • winger with pace (doesn’t matter what side, a two-way winger obviously better)
    • LCM with great progressive attributes (carrying or passing, prefer passing to complement Rice)
    • fast overlapping fullback (prefer RB here)
    • rotational central CB

    How would you spend the money?

      Incomings

      • £120m + Osimhen (OR) - £60m + Boniface
      • £20m + Rollheimer (OR) - £80m + Kvaratskhelia
      • £60m + Douglas Luiz

      Outgoings

      • £40m - Ramsdale
      • £30m - Nketiah
      • £10m - Nelson
      • £20m - ESR
      • £15m - Vieira

      Potential signings and goings:

      • If Big Gabi goes to Saudi I’d sign someone like Diomande.

      • I’d also listen to really good offers for players like White. Like something in the range above £45 mn and sign Fenerbahce’s RB Ferdi Kadioglu in his place, but it’s unlikely.

      If I had the chance to deal with next summers transfers, this is how I would do it, based on your predictions:

      -CF/ST: Osimhen - 100-120M€

      -Winger: Antonio Nusa 20M€ or Nico Williams on a free

      -RB: Sacha Boey 20M€

      -LCM: Eduard Spertsyan 20M€

      -Rotational CB: Mario Hermoso on a free (he also plays at LB)

      -DM: André from Fluminense - 25-30M€

      -Back-up GK: Alvaro Valles for free

      -Also, Raya’s buy option for 30M

      Expenses: 240M

      Sales

      -Ramsdale:35M

      -Partey:30M

      -Nketiah:25M

      -Lokonga:5M

      -Tierney:20M

      -Marquinhos:10M

      -Tavares:15M

      Total Sales:130M

      Net spend:-110M

      But yeah, this is some wild speculation

      Mega name: Zubimendi release clause(£53M) or £60M - Douglas Luiz.

      Other names: Nico Williams( FREE).

      Budget CF: Hugo Ekitike(£40M)

      The last names can be players on their last contracts. The Diomande guy is expensive and I feel Manchester United or Chelsea might make him a priority.
